Chapter 107 Air Combat

Then I discussed with Clap the issue of the lockdown at Port Stanley Airport.

This question is actually no longer complicated. After using the tricks before, Argentina would definitely think that it had successfully deceived the British team.

Of course, at this time, the British team also cooperated very much and stopped bombing the Port Stanley Airport. So what happened next is not difficult to imagine... Argentina would use the darkness to take off and land transport planes at Port Stanley Airport to replenish the supply

The Azoujun was continuously transported to the island of Horse.

But the current British army obviously will not let the Afghan army succeed.

It is actually very simple to impose a blockade on the Armenian army. After all, the British army already knew that the Armenian army would transport at night, and the destination was still Stanley Port, so they just need to send a few Harrier to patrol near Stanley Port at night.

That's it.

The only problem is to grasp this degree, that is, the British army also pretended to have discovered Argentina's transport aircraft by chance and shot it down. If necessary, they must even deliberately let a few transport aircraft go. Otherwise,

It is very likely that Jun realized that the disguise at Port Stanley Airport had been seen through.

"General!" Just as we were in a heated discussion, a British correspondent quickly walked up to Krapp and reported: "A large number of Argentine fleets have been dispatched, including aircraft carriers!"

"Be ready for the fight!" Clap ordered, and before leaving his seat, he said to me: "A big battle is about to begin!"

I just smiled, and in fact I knew it wouldn't have a big fight like Clap thought.

In this battle in history, the Argentine Navy and Army basically did not play any role.

Army, the Afghan army on the island, which was several times the British army, surrendered to the British army in large numbers without any resistance; as for the navy, it was not until the end of the war after a warship was sunk by a British submarine.

Dare to come out.

What is worthy of praise in this battle is the Argentine Air Force. They know that their fighter jets are not as good as the British army. They know that the air stagnation time is only four or five minutes, but they know that this trip is likely to never come back...

...But batch after batch to the British fleet without the cooperation of any naval warships.

It is precisely because of this that some people say that the Cabernet War was actually the Argentine Air Force fighting against the British naval, land and air.

The command post soon became busy, and Clap was busy issuing instructions one after another, and various documents and orders flew around like snowflakes, and the fleet quickly drove towards the direction of the Argentine fleet...

At this time, I was the only one who was the most idle. I was just an advisor, or to be precise, a strategic advisor. As for tactical matters, such as commanding a fleet to cooperate with aircraft carriers and submarines to engage in large-scale naval battles... I knew nothing about it.

Of course, Lin Xia is also free as me.

"Don't you do something?" Lin Xia asked.

"Didn't you see me drinking coffee?!" I said.

Lin Xia couldn't help laughing out loud: "Others are busy, you are still in the mood to drink coffee!"

"You have a drink too!" I said.

This is the benefit of being on British warships, and you never have to worry about not having coffee.

"I can't drink it!" Lin Xia refused without thinking.

"To be honest!" Lin Xia looked at me curiously: "I'm getting more and more aware that you are not simple anymore!"

"What's the meaning?"

"The suggestions you made!" Lin Xia said: "You forgot that I am your translator, and I have to repeat every word you say!"

"Oh!" Only then did I realize that Lin Xia was referring to the countermeasures I was thinking about against Argentina.

"Actually, this is nothing!" I said: "In terms of strategy, war, there is no military service, and it doesn't even distinguish between eras. For example, the ancients have used the method I just used a long time ago, what's the name..."

Speaking of this, I deliberately paused.

"Call to use the trick!" Lin Xia continued excitedly.

"Yes, it's just a trick!" Actually, I didn't know, but deliberately asked Lin Xia to answer to increase her sense of accomplishment. Sometimes women are like this. They need these things to stimulate and make them feel happy in the conversation.

"We China have dominated the world for thousands of years!" As I said that, I sighed a little: "China's backwardness is actually only a matter of the past few hundred years. We do need to step up our pace to catch up with other countries, but there is no need to do so.

On the one hand, don’t lose confidence in your country. Because from the perspective of the entire history, it is normal to rise and fall. Occasionally, you are just a small wave. "

Lin Xia pondered for a while before nodding with shame and said, "I have never looked at the problem from this perspective. When the battalion commander said this, I feel it is true. Now we are just in this lagging behind for hundreds of years.

It’s just inside, but in the past few hundred years, it will make people have the mentality of denying everything about China, thinking that everything in China is not as good as others, and thinking that things from other countries are good!”

"This is called being in this mountain..."

"I don't know where the clouds are deep!" Lin Xia continued.

I nodded to Lin Xia with admiration, but accidentally found something strange in Lin Xia's eyes when she looked at me. I can't explain what this is strange.

"Discover the target!" At this time, a British army in the command post shouted.

This scream made me a little surprised. As far as I know, the Argentine fleet did not have a large-scale warship war with the British fleet, so what is going on with the "discovery target" now?

"They discovered Argentina's fighter jets!" Lin Xia explained after listening for a while.

"Oh!" I quickly understood after hearing this.

What was discovered was not Argentina's warships, but carrier-based aircraft that took off from Argentina's "May 25".

"It seems there are only two!" Lin Xia said.

"There are only two?" I couldn't help but feel a little funny when I heard this. Isn't this asking for death?!

But then I realized that this was actually because Argentina had hope for a peaceful resolution.

It should be said that the Argentine regime has not yet fully realized that they have no other choice except to fight a war, or that they are subconsciously afraid of this British special fleet, so they actually hope to resolve the Cabernet Island issue peacefully in their hearts.

They did not want to expand the war to an irreparable level. On the other hand, because the British army had just bombed the Stanley Port Airport in the Island of Malay, they had to respond... So they dispatched the entire fleet but only sent them

Two fighter jets came, which was just a means to appease the people in the country and maintain the morale of the army.

It is conceivable what the result is... The British aircraft carrier soon dispatched four Harriers to intercept them. We were told without even seeing the Argentine fighter jets in the warship.

One Argentine fighter plane was shot down and the other fled.

Of course, the British army in the command line cheered again, but I could only smile bitterly.

"Col. You don't seem to care about this!" Clap was a little confused when he saw my expression.

"General!" I replied: "You should know that I participated in the Afghan War!"

"Of course!" Clap replied: "It is because of this that Colonel Smith highly recommends you!"

"Then you know the reason!" I said, "If you know what I've experienced in the battlefield in Afghanistan!"

Krapp was stunned when he heard this, and nodded after thinking about it, "These may be a pediatrician for you!"

"Not all!" I said, "Is there any reason for the danger? You know, on the battlefield we are always in bullets, shells, blood, corpses and all kinds of dangers. Under this stimulation, I am always in the midst of bullets, shells, blood, corpses and all kinds of dangers.

Only then will you be nervous and excited, and like this..."

"I understand!" Clap smiled, turned to look at the British soldiers who were still cheering around and said, "Veterans like you are exactly what we need. They need more training and battlefield experience, maybe

If you experience more, they will be as calm as you!"

Argentina's sneak attack on the British army did not end. A few hours later, when it was dark, Argentina launched another attack on the special mixed fleet.

This time the attack still had two aircraft, but the difference from the last attack was that these two aircraft were bombers, and were bombers flying at low altitudes.

It is obvious that Argentina needs a victory to boost the morale of its people and troops, or it can be said that the Argentine army also needs to give the people an explanation.

Although this attack seems no different from last time, it means completely different in my eyes.

As I said before, the first time was just a symbolic dispatch of two fighters. Everyone knows that using two fighters to face the British special-mix fleet with two aircraft carriers would be tantamount to seeking death and being able to escape back.

All of them are lucky.

But this time... it is obvious that the Argentine Air Force is testing, and they want to know the night combat capabilities of the British Harrier fighter.

So the ones sent out were bombers, bombers flying at low altitudes... This time, they were actually sneak attacks, attacks on British ships.

I think this exposed at least two weaknesses of Argentina: one is that there is insufficient intelligence and information. It is time for them to not know the night combat capabilities of the British Harrier fighter, and they have to use the lives of bombers and pilots to test it.

Second, Argentine fighter jets lack night combat capabilities, otherwise, these two bombers would not have even lost one escort fighter.

Or it can be said that the battle during the day made the Ah Army lose confidence in their fighter jets, making them think that escort with fighter jets is almost the same as that, so they sent only two bombers.

The result is of course another tragedy, and it is even worse than the daytime battle: the British Harrier took off and intercepted it, and the result of shooting down one aircraft and injuring one aircraft. The British army's losses were only one aircraft.

The frigate suffered a minor injury. (To be continued...)
